PAPER, CALMENSON & COMPANY
BLADES DIVISION
BUCYRUS, OHIO

Notice of Revised Determination
on Reconsideration

On February 20, 2001, the Department issued a Notice of
Affirmative Determination Regarding Application for
Reconsideration applicable to workers and former workers of the
subject firm. The notice was published in the Federal Register
on March 2, 2001 (66 FR 13088).
The initial investigation for workers producing ground
engaging tools at Paper, Calmenson & Company, Blades Division,
Bucyrus, Ohio, revealed that sales, production and employment all
increased prior to the August 2000, sale of the firm to Bucyrus
Blades, Inc. The plant ceased production in October 2000.
On reconsideration, the import data submitted to the
Department show that a portion of the plant production was
replaced by imports of articles like or directly competitive with
those produced at the subject firm.
Conclusion
After careful review of the additional facts obtained on
reconsideration, I conclude that increased imports of articles
like or directly competitive with ground engaging tools,
contributed importantly to the declines in sales or production
and to the total or partial separation of workers of Paper,
Calmenson & Company, Blades Division, Bucyrus, Ohio. In
accordance with the provisions of the Act, I make the following
certification:
"All workers of Paper, Calmenson & Company, Blades Division,
Bucyrus, Ohio, who became totally or partially separated
from employment on or after September 22, 1999, through two
years from the date of certification, are eligible to apply
for adjustment assistance under Section 223 of the Trade Act
of 1974."
Signed in Washington, D.C. this 13th day of March, 2001.
